Asprosin as a Potential Link Between Vascular Inflammation and Disease Activity in Behçet's Disease
Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.Serum asprosin levels are significantly elevated in patients with Behçet's disease compared to healthy controls. Asprosin concentrations increase progressively with disease activity and are strongly associated with vascular involvement and uveitis, suggesting a potential role as a biomarker of vascular inflammation and disease severity.

Adipokine profiles in preeclampsia
The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2019 Objectives: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), including preeclampsia (PE), are associated with short- and long-term maternal health complications, and obesity is a leading attributable risk factor for HDP. Yet, most women identified as obese [by body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2] do not develop HDP, indicating limited predictability of BMI ...
